This movie is an emotional ride, as we get to follow the lives of these two boys to men... from the wild imagination to the bitter reality struggling and trying to balance the pressure of leading a normal life and being true to ones self.

This drama shows quite a few issues in a very honest and I dare say real way, as many people will /have found them selfs dealing with these struggles, gay or not. Life is always harder on those who stick out and while it may be easier to just hop on that normalcy train... It is a lot more painful.

The leads are in no way perfect, while one is more lovable than the other (in my opinion), both have their flaws just like most humans making them relatable, and making me feel for them. I did of course also want to beat a few people up as we get to see both racism and homophobia disguised as concern how this could be concern is of course beyond me but I know there are a whole bunch of people who actually do believe their racism is concern and well this movie does a pretty good job showing both the internalised homophobia one may feel as well as a whole bunch of shades of homophobia, but also a whole lot of love, lust and everything in-between.

The movie has quite a few really good inner monologs showing just how important (yet again) communication is, as well as just taking a step back and listening to ones partner instead of assuming things as one of the leads does get a lesson in both consent, and regret and so on and so on...

So what can I say... It is a good movie, not always easy to watch but it is a good movie
